my brother had stillbirth, if that makes sence, i only found out yesturday that i have a dead brother and i can't believe it, i just can't accept that they died, we actually will never meet or anything, one day maybe, how can i try and cope? i seem to be the only one who cares because it happened years ago.

I have a stillborn brother. It is hard because he would have been my full blood brother. All my other brothers and sisters are half. I go to his grave but not enough. But soon I'm gonna go put flowers and a truck there. I wonder what he would have been like to. I think we would have been close. Hugs to u. I see how everyone forgot about my brother to and it hurts to see his grave so neglected. I'm like omg he's a baby. Thier are no toys here. I have to go do this.

She revealed to me that she was trying to protect me. I told her I don't want protection. I cried about my lost brother for days after I found out. I don't know if it affected me so much because I had just lost my baby and felt that our family was cursed or what, but I am still very sad that we lost a baby. My mom named him Ethan.

This is somthing that is very bothersome and not easily dealt with. Don't hold in your sadness... express it.
